If you ask an open-ended question about whether somebody is conservative, that's like setting it up on the tee for him. If you give specifics of (alleged) unconservatism, that would be a good, tough, but fair question. I.e., the first question was pitiful. Gingrich hit it out of the park.

The first, middle and last questions that SHOULD BE asked of Gingrich [and all other candidates as well] concern WHAT SPECIFIC ADMINISTRATIVE/FISCAL POLICY STEPS WILL YOU INITIALLY TAKE AS PRESIDENT TO DOWNSIZE/ELIMINATE FREDERAL GOVERNMENTAL PROGRAMS/AGENCIES/EXPENSES? WILL YOU ELIMINATE FEDERAL EMPLOYMENT TO ECONOMIC/FINANCIAL LEVELS IN ACCORDANCE WITH EMPLOYMENT SURVEYS-ANALYSIS SIMILAR TO PRIVATE INDUSTRY'S USE OF SAME IN ORDER TO LOWER THE DEFECIT/DEBT [AND COST TO TAXPAYERS]? All other questions regarding BS items which have no/little relevance to critical concerns of governmental administration should be protested by debate audience memberships rightfully!!!!!!!!!
